Weather in May
Temperature
Chico's transition into May brings a slight rise in the average high-temperature, moving from 74.7°F (23.7°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C). The nighttime temperature in Chico, during May, averages of 62.6°F (17°C).Heat index
The heat index value during May is appraised at a hot 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
